Rep. John Curtis (R-UT) appeared on CNN Saturday to speak about Donald Trump’s consideration of using the military to overturn the results of the presidential election.
On Saturday, CNN’s Bianna Golodryga asked Curtis about the situation.
“Well, let me just tell you, I’ve been in Congress for three years and for three years I keep hearing all these worst-case scenarios,” Curtis said. “We have to remember, it was a conversation — not a revolution. There are far more important things in front of us and I think we need to move on and tackle them.”
“But that’s all you have to say to that?” Golodryga pressed. “We can’t just grow numb to incidents that would happen in a third world country and we would have a State Department that would be alarmed about hearing these kinds of reports.”
“Listen, you’re talking about a conversation that reportedly took place. We don’t know anything about the details and you just can’t get me all riled-up about that.”
